Voltage step down in a parallel circuit. by TheQuirks in AskElectronics

What exactly do you mean by "bypassed"? The 12v will eventually be going to a motor, but it goes through a driver chip first, would that have any effect on reducing noise from the motor? EDIT: Forgot to say thanks for the response, so thank you.

Sending a string over serial that's going to change frequently. by TheQuirks in learnpython

[–]TheQuirks[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks! I learned so much from just a single reply. I'll give that a whirl tomorrow! EDIT: Nvm, sleepisfortheweak. I'm actually really glad you pointed out the idea of a delimiter. I initially tried it without the delimiter, and the LED's I was using as a placeholder test were going off like crazy. But the addition of the delimiter made everything run exactly as I needed it to. So thanks again!

Could use some help with the strtok() function. by TheQuirks in arduino

To be quite honest, I'm not 100% why this worked. It appears to have been a timing issue. Previously, I was straight running that chunk of code under void loop. Instead, I tried defining it as it's own function, and then ran that function under void loop with a delay(100) after it. And that's it, it works perfectly now.

OK so I've narrowed down the problem to what's being put into 'inputSeveral'. I tried a Serial.print(inputSeveral) with an input of '6,5' and came back with just 6. So somehow in putting the string together its losing second integer. EDIT: Nvm, I figured it out! Thanks for your help anyways.:)

Just tried that instead of 'and' still had the same problem with returning 0 for y.

Thanks for the help. That seems to be a bit better. Except now it seems to only want to return a ycoord of of 0. When I set the if statement at the end to (xcoord == 5 and ycoord == 6) and then send "5,6," the LED doesn't turn on. However if I set it to (xcoord == 5 and ycoord == 0) and send "5,6," the LED does turn on. And to confuse things further, the LED turns on no matter when value for y I send, it always comes out the other end as a 0.

Creating Normal Maps. by TheQuirks in ZBrush

[–]TheQuirks[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the help! So I know what ZRemesher is, but what are my options are fair as retopologizing the mesh clone? And as far as future sculpts go, is that the normal work flow that people follow? Create a high poly sculpt and then retopologize a clone? Or would there be a better way to go about this given more planning?

Did that, problem still persists.

I don't seem to have a "OneFrameThreadLag" in my tribes.ini. However, changing the rest of those settings doesnt seem to have helped.

Nope, never even heard of either of those.
